2013 Champagne Thiénot La Vigne Aux Gamins Magnum

Champagne La Vigne Aux Gamins reveals a charming, fresh bouquet with aromas of pastry, tree fruit, honey, and lemon oil. Medium to full-bodied, structured, and rich, it envelops the open profile of the vintage, tempering the concentrated and sweet finish. This special release is made from 100% Chardonnay, making it a Blanc des Blancs. Malolactic fermentation is unusual for this type of wine. Champagne Thiénot aims to maximize the terroir's impact in this cuvée. The wine comes from a top-quality vineyard in Avize (Côte des Blancs), and the grapes were planted 60 years ago by the Thiénot family. The chalky, limestone terroir gives the wine its finesse. The cru takes its name from Alain Thiénot, Stanislas, and Garance, who played on the terroir as children. Low production, between 2,500 and 3,000 bottles, only in worthwhile years. Thanks to the meticulous care given to the grapes and the spraying method they have been using for 10 years, a method pioneered by Thiénot, their wines contain very little sulfate.

This is a magnum edition in OWC/1 - Even tastier, more festive and with a longer drinking window.
